I'm still hooked :)

It's a shame that Hawkins' wife and kids are leaving him now that it's finally "over", but I guess that frees him up to go after whoever is on the other end of that little chat device he's got.

the marines story line played out really well with how Jake and his dad figured out what was going on. And now they have a tank, which will surely come in handy. The end was strong too, since it shows that even though Johnston may not be mayor anymore, he's gonna take charge and his military background is starting to kick into high gear.

I just got caught up. I have been working nights and missed the last three episodes. It was KILLING ME!

I liked the Marine story line. I was convinced at first but like in the show some things bugged me. I chalked it up to the old "its a TV show" but they have been trying to keep everything convincing. The radio thing caught me since that is what my specialty is. With the antenna and size I knew it couldn't transmit or receive over 10-15 miles even over flat land like in Kansas and Nebraska. Good Catch, Jake. That and the "grunts". I have worked with Marines and live on a Army base. I know the difference. Good Catch, Dad (the REAL Mayor of Jericho). Did you see the look in Grey's eyes? He isn't in control anymore.

I still am not sure about Hawkins. Is he good or bad? What is his role in all of this? Who DOES he work for? I hope they dig deeper into his history.

i wanna say after seeing the first episode of the new season, that hawkins is either a terrorist or a government agent planted in a terrorist cell who didn't do his job right.

Yeah there is something dodgy about him but I think now he just wants to be good and have no trouble but he knows theres consequences with not blowing his "package" on the right day...

Well if you only think he is a bad guy for having a nuke in his backyard (previously in the walls of his basement) then I don't think you should think he's a bad guy because of that. Yea, he could of possibly put the nuke elsewhere but he is trying to keep it safe and out of enemy hands. I think most people would of taken it with them as well and would of not left it behind. Yea, he killed the FBI Informant but I think anyone else would of done so too if they said the exact same words he did, he was going to turn him in if he didn't help him get out of there and the guy just twisted his leg or something to, kind of hard to do something so fast with that problem now and the bad guys right behind you that could blow Hawkins cover too.

Great episode though, I am glad they have decided to tell us even more about what sorta has happened. Though I still wish they would show us more of what has happened outside of Jericho, more news, what is currently going on and all that stuff since it's hard to believe that after 3+ months little would still be known (I'm pretty sure it's 3+ months already, since I think a few episodes ago they had mentioned it had been 11 weeks already or something).

Well, the name of the show is Jericho :p

I wasn't expecting this kind of episode, where they spill a lot of the beans out, so to speak. It really makes me wonder how a show like this can possibly survive more than a season or two. The premise of Jericho is two fold: 1) How multiple nuclear strikes in the US affects a small town, and 2) the conspiracy that was behind the attacks.

It looks like they're trying to avoid doing what Lost did in Season Two by answering some questions (the directors said something very much along those lines), but there's a line where you shouldn't divulge too much information. It just seems that if they let the cat out of the bag this early, they won't have much more to go on. That's why I couldn't see Prison Break going beyond three seasons, nor a show like this with the conspiracy and mystery being mostly divulged. In the case for Lost, the main driving component of the show is the mystery of the island. There are a lot of mysteries involved and it's easy for it to go five seasons long. Prison Break and Jericho? Not so imho.

Still, I'm enjoying the show, but I can't see it having a big future without being dragged on.

Well it started out being watched by 11m people then they had the massive hiatus...then they came back to a lesser audience and even been mentioned in a list to be canned...so if they answer massive questions its because they are worried that it may not return.

    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.
